UK Custom WordPress development

Hi, thanks for looking at my profile. My name is Zack and I’m from Somerset, UK.

I specialise in custom WordPress development, such as custom plugins that provide unique solutions.

I come from a generalist background, previously focusing on PHP sites and then later focusing on WordPress, so I bring a broad understanding as well as my specific understanding of the complexities of plugin modification tasks.

My first web development job was 13 years ago, although I have been coding since my school days. So I have been writing PHP, JS, CSS, HTML for a long time. I’ve worked with various libraries, platforms and frameworks over the years. In 2010 I choose to focus my efforts on WordPress platform.

Best practices, testing, security and good communication is paramount in every project I take on.

Before focusing on client work, I was a Themeforest author, releasing 6 themes on Themeforest.

Custom Plugins

I create custom solutions when there isn’t one available. I also extend existing plugins, But when I do extend a plugin, I don’t ever edit them directly. I create a new one that hooks in, this greatly limits reduces the maintenance and security issues that editing a plugin directly can cause. But I generally recommend where budget allows, a fully custom solution as this is the best option long term.
